They had an opportunity to experience outdoor lessons, learning about the marine ecological system. Here they really got to know about coral reefs, sea grass, and rare sea animals. They admitted that the trip led to more awareness in marine resources: \n\nVoice *** girl \"I learn about sea grass how many types they are, as well as names of coral reefs. I also learnt about mangrove forest and its usefulness and how we can benefit from the resources. After this I would love to explain or share with my friends or people in the community the importance of sea grass, mangrove forest, and how we can help preserve or look after them for the next generation.\" \n\nThe day trip was part of a Youth Camp on marine resources conservation which is organised by the Phuket Marine and Coastal Resources Conservation Centre, aiming at educating and raising awareness for conservation. They are then expected to be networks or key members in prevention and resolving any exploitation of coastal resources. \nKoh Kai is located just 15 minutes from the east coast of Phuket Island. There, the turquoise water is so clear and so full of life, that we do not really have to snorkel and the beach is so white and so nice that people can enjoy sun bathing or exploring there. The island is so popular with snorkellors, including Asian or European tourists. \nAfter this fun learning experience, the students realize the value of natural resources, and vow to help conserve the environment as it is a precious asset for local communities and the country as a whole. This is Mathilde, reporting for Andaman News.
